[DML] Re: Cold Start

[tobyp@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Warren - We just had a local car with a cold start problem.  The 
owner took apart the warm-up regulator, and all *appeared* to be 
okay.  However, on further examination, it wasn't passing fuel at 
all.  There was some internal sludge buildup that had totally clogged 
the passage way for fuel flow. He was able to force some solvent 
through it with compressed air, and got the flow going.  The cold 
start problem was solved with that.  The bottom line - you may want 
to consider either replacing or completely cleaning the CPR (or warm 
up regulator) to solve this.
